Making White Slip - Pottery

Today, I will introduce the preparation process of white slip, which I also use a lot in my works.
※ While I will briefly introduce the mix, please note that the finish can vary and peeling can occur due to various conditions, so I hope you will use this as a reference and adjust it according to your own judgment.

Here in the US we would describe you as a "double threat"....meaning someone who is good at two things. In your case good at ceramics and now good at video.

[@WatajimaPottery]

Thank you so much!

Thank you for showing the process! Can you share the formula of white slip? Maybe I can reproduce here in Brazil!

[@WatajimaPottery]

Thank you.
They are kaolin and porcelain clay mixed in a 6:4 ratio. The amount of water is about twice the volume of the raw materials.

[@candelariaatalaya5709]

Wowwww Could you please share the formula ?❤❤❤❤

[@Craxin01]

I am curious, can you reconstitute the slip if it dries out, say, by breaking it back down into a powder and then adding it to water, or do you have to discard if it dries out before using?

[@WatajimaPottery]

Yes. When the slip dries, it can be dissolved in water for reuse.

Is the slip for application on greenware or bisque only? Thank you.

[@WatajimaPottery]

Depending on the work, I apply white slip before or after bisque firing. Thank you.

[@llchenvmoos]

When you use your white slip on bisque, do you fire the bisque again before glazing? Thank you.
